711.0005 R1.1 5 SYSTEM OVERVIEW SYSTEM COMPONENTS HOW SMARTIRE FOR COMMERCIAL SYSTEMS FUNCTIONS 1. Tire data is sent wirelessly to the receiver by in-wheel sensor/transmitters that constantly monitor tire pressure and temperature. Sensors are uniquely labeled to identify specific wheel positions for system installation. 2. The receiver comes pre-programmed with each transmitter’s unique ID number and assigned wheel position. The receiver can monitor up to 20 wheel positions and is able to handle the most complex RV, towed vehicle/trailer and tractor configurations. 3. If a problem occurs, both an audible and visual warning alerts the driver to the condition. 4. Towed vehicles or trailer tires can also be monitored. See your authorized SmarTire dealer for more information.
711.0005 R1.1 6 SENSOR OVERVIEW SmarTire for Commercial Systems offers two kinds of tire pressure / temperature sensors. The Low Pressure Sensor (black) is for smaller Commercial Systems and towed vehicles. It is configured to measure tires with a cold inflation pressure up to 65 PSI. The high pressure sensor (orange) is configured for medium to large Commercial Systems with cold inflation tire pressures up to 160 PSI. If your SmarTire for Commercial Systems includes both low pressure and high pressure sensors, the orange sensors are for the tow vehicle and the black sensors are for the towed vehicle. FULL FUNCTION DISPLAY OVERVIEW
711.0005 R1.1 7 USING SMARTIRE FOR COMMERCIAL SYSTEMS GETTING STARTED When your vehicle is started, your SmarTire system will power up and the Full Function Display (FFD) will briefly flash all of its screen icons, and flash the alert light. The system will then go into stand-by mode, waiting for tire data from the sensors. When your vehicle is driven over 6 mph (10kph), the SmarTire will begin to receive tire data. When all of the tire icons are filled in, the SmarTire has captured data from all of the tires. NOTE: The system will not display tire data until the vehicle has been moved. SmarTire starts to receive tire data only AFTER your vehicle is driven ABOVE 6 mph (10 kph). When viewing tire data for an RV / tow vehicle, the programmed wheel positions are displayed in a vehicle icon. When viewing tire data for a trailer or towed vehicle, the windshield graphic disappears and the vehicle icon becomes a trailer icon. The system will alternate views between the towing and towed vehicle when operating with this configuration. The diagram below illustrates the differences between the two viewing modes. USING THE FULL FUNCTION DISPLAY To display tire data for a specific wheel position: 1. Press the TIRE button to scroll through each of the wheel positions. 2. Press the MODE button to scroll through the pressure, pressure deviation and temperature readings for each selected tire.
711.0005 R1.1 8 MAKING ADJUSTMENTS TO PRE-CONFIGURED SETTINGS SmarTire for Commercial Systems is pre-configured with the default tire pressure settings as described below: TYPE OF SYSTEM 4 WHEEL LOW PRESSURE 4 WHEEL HIGH PRESSURE 6 WHEEL HIGH PRESSURE 8 WHEEL HIGH PRESSURE 6 WHEEL HIGH PRESSURE + 4 WHEEL TOW-BEHIND 8 WHEEL HIGH PRESSURE + 4 WHEEL TOW-BEHIND Cold Inflation Pressure 30 PSI 80 PSI 100 PSI 100 PSI 100 PSI 30 PSI 100 PSI 30 PSI Pressure Deviation Alert +/- 5 PSI +/- 10 PSI +/- 10 PSI +/- 10 PSI +/- 10 PSI +/- 10 PSI +/- 10 PSI +/- 10 PSI Low Pressure Warning 25 PSI 70 PSI 90 PSI 90 PSI 90 PSI 25 PSI 90 PSI 25 PSI High Temperature Warning 176° 176° 195° 195° 195° 195° 195° 195° The default pressure settings can be changed for your particular vehicle. Check with your RV Owner’s Manual to determine the RV manufacturer’s recommended Cold Inflation Pressure settings. Check the Owner’s Manual of the towed vehicle or trailer for the recommended Cold Inflation Pressures. SmarTire recommends setting the Low Pressure Warning at 10 PSI below the recommended Cold Inflation Pressure for your vehicle. SmarTire also recommends not to change the Pressure Deviation Alert settings. To change the Cold Inflation Pressure and Low Pressure Warning settings, follow the instructions in the SmarTire Full Function Display Owner’s Manual (Pg. 13-14).
711.0005 R1.1 9 MAINTAINING SMARTIRE FOR COMMERCIAL SYSTEMS Please refer to your “Full Function Display Owner’s Manual” for full instructions regarding post-installation operating instructions. TIRE ROTATION 4 Wheel System: Refer to Page 19 in the FFD Manual 4+ Wheel System: Refer to Page 22 in the FFD Manual For more updated installation information, please contact your authorized SmarTire dealer, or go to SmarTire’s website at www.smartire.com. NOTICE REGARDING TOWED VEHICLES OR TRAILERS If you are using the SmarTire system in conjunction with a towed vehicle or trailer, the following information is important to note. When you unhitch the towed vehicle or trailer and begin driving the towing vehicle, the SmarTire system may pick up a stray transmission from the towed vehicle or trailer. If this occurs, the SmarTire receiver will display an “E1” alert within 20 minutes. If this happens, simply turn the system off (by turning the ignition to off) and then back on to clear the alert. The next time you hook up the towed vehicle or trailer, the SmarTire system will receive the towed vehicle or trailers data transmissions and reset itself to monitor all tires. NOTICE REGARDING ADDITIONAL ANTENNA REQUIREMENT One 20’ antenna is included in the 6-Wheel SmarTire for Recreational Vehicles Kit. This antenna is suitable for vehicles less than 25 feet long. An additional 40’ antenna (part number 101.1040) is required for 6-wheel vehicles longer than 25 feet. Please see the Sensor & Antenna Location Diagram in the Installation Guide for the correct antenna mounting locations.
711.0005 R1.1 10 SYSTEM SCOPE OF USE & WARNINGS This tire monitoring system does not in any way replace the need for regular maintenance of the tire pressures and tire conditions. SYSTEM INSTALLATION AND USAGE Warrant of the SmarTire system requires that it has been properly installed and programmed by qualified personnel according to SmarTire Systems Inc. documentation. This includes the Owner’s Manual and any supplementary installation instructions included with system components. USE OF CHEMICALS Temporary resealing or re-inflation products containing internal sealers or propellants in any tire/wheel assembly may adversely affect the operation of the Sensor/Transmitters and void warrantee. REACTING TO ALERTS When an alert or warning condition is detected, reduce vehicle speed to an appropriate safe level and proceed to a safe stopping location or facility where the tire can be inspected and serviced. The low pressure alert or warning indicates that the air pressure has dropped to a selected minimum.
